"Ask Tucows" IRC Chat Today

— in which you can chat online with me and other people who work at

Tucows — takes place today at 1:00 p.m. Eastern (10:00 a.m.

Pacific, 18:00 UTC). A number of people within the company have signed up to join in the

conversation, so it looks as though most departments within the company

will be represented.

The chat is an IRC chat and will take place on the #asktucows channel on the IRC server irc.freenode.net. If you already have an IRC client installed on your machine, all you need do is click here to join in.

If you don’t have an IRC client installed on your machine, you’ve got a couple of options:

  • You can download and install one. I’ve written up instructions for Windows and Mac users in this post.
  • You can visit developer.tucows.com/asktucows, where we’ve set up a Java applet that will let you join in the chat without downloading an IRC client (you’ll need Java installed on your machine, of course).

Once again, the chat starts at 1:00 p.m. Eastern (18:00 UTC) and will run for about an hour. See you there!
